The situation
Turning one of those leads into a booked job meant capturing it, qualifying it by hand, chasing to schedule a site visit, preparing a quote as a PDF, and then tracking every follow-up in a spreadsheet. Growth was constrained by admin rather than by demand.
What we found
- Repetitive admin across follow-up, quoting and appointment coordination18 hrs per week
- That time at a $50 blended hourly cost across reps and admin staff$3,600 per month
- Follow-up depending on somebody remembering, with nothing holding leads that went quiet
What we built
- 1One CRM fed by every lead source: website, paid search and referral forms
- 2A qualifying form with conditional logic sorting on project type, location and timeline, routing high-intent leads straight to a rep for callback and everything else into nurture
- 3Instant text and email replies carrying a pre-filled calendar link for a site visit or virtual estimate, with three-day and seven-day reminders firing automatically if nothing happened
- 4Quote templates by service that generate a branded PDF after the site visit, emailed with accept and decline buttons built into it
- 5A visible pipeline running from qualified through site visit booked, quote sent, follow-up needed and closed won, with a daily task summary for each rep
- 6A long-term re-engagement sequence for unconverted leads carrying testimonials, before-and-after images and time-limited offers
What changed

- Over $45,000 in additional monthly revenue across roofing and remodelling
- Over $3,000 a month saved in labour cost
- Three times the lead volume handled without another hire
How this was measured
Admin hours, conversion rate and closed revenue were tracked in the client CRM after the workflow went live. The source document does not state the measurement window. Note that the $45,000 monthly figure is additional closed revenue and is not comparable with the $3,600 monthly cost above it, which covers admin labour only.
